How to Make Diabetic Strawberry Jam
- Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of unflavored gelatin over 1/4 cup cold water in a small bowl. Let it bloom for 5 minutes.
- In a heavy-bottomed saucepan, combine 2 cups fresh strawberries (hulled and sliced), 1/4 cup water, and 1/4 cup lemon juice. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
- Reduce heat to low and simmer gently for 10-15 minutes, or until strawberries are very soft and have released their juices. Mash slightly with a potato masher or fork for desired consistency.
- Remove from heat and stir in the bloomed gelatin until completely dissolved.
- Allow the mixture to cool slightly (about 5-10 minutes).
- Stir in your preferred artificial sweetener to taste (start with 2-4 tablespoons and adjust to your sweetness preference). Use a sugar substitute that is suitable for cooking.
- Pour the jam into sterilized jars or containers. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours before serving to allow the jam to set completely.
